With a single sed:
Code:
sed 's/pir||/pir|/
t secrepl
b
:secrepl
s/\(pir|[^_]*\)_/\1|/' file

I am assuming that if both pir| and pir|| occur in a line, then the latter comes first and pir|| occurs only once in a line. If these assumptions don't hold good for your data, then you might need to change the sed command a bit. In that case, let me know.
